It's Ganpati season and with the Mumbai traffic rush, heading everywhere to watch the season in its full glory is not going to be physically possible. Here's a list of the top 5 Ganpati mandals to head to and why.

Chichpoklicha Chintamani

At over 20 feet high, this Ganesha cuts a tall figure. And why not? It's after all, in its 100th year. Established in 1920, the Chinchpokli Sarvajanik Utsav Mandal was set up by a local group of men.
